Winning the Academy Award for the Best Foreign Language Film of 2007, this film is based on the true story of Salomon Sorowitsch, a forger who made a name for himself as Berlin's "King of the Counterfeiters." Arrested by the Nazis for forging baptism certificates for Jews, Sorowitsch (Karl Markovics) is first sent to a concentration camp, but finds himself drafted into Operation Bernhard, the Nazi effort to finance the war and destabilize their enemies' economies by forging British and American money. Sorowitsch and his fellow counterfeiters find themselves in a delicate balancing act, succeeding just enough to live another day, but not enough to truly help their captors. In German and French, with English subtitles.
